Autopots, going on vacation

gwheels said:

I will run coco-hydroton 60-40 next round as well. I have tried a few different medias but i think coco is the best for autopots. I have 12 gallons of new clay hydroton and half a brick of coco. I think it will fill all 4 perfectly I think I will go clean out my gear it has been soaking in bleach and water for 2 weeks and it is time to flush it all out and get it ready for seed drop.

Do you start your seeds in their final pots?

I have been using autopots and left over cocci and cheap ass store bought posting mix and perlite

I feed can coco a +b and added Epsom salts at about 4 desert spoons per 220litres

I have a 220 litre res. I fill it when it's low like 50litres left.
My pk timing well when I see preflower sites. I could last 2 weeks or more

I don't like bubbler in my res it make more mess in the tank. Just a shit Chinese something fish tank pump.

I can pull a kg off 600watts of cobs and a 400 HP's

Scrog but double trellis and everything below the first net

I agree with the new pipes thing. Great advice there is nothing nastier than sucking a lump of grot out of a line.

I'll give u my advice on if u want to go organic. Super soil well potting mix with perlite bat and worm shit, Coco

And after the get out 15cms tall after 2 toppings to bush her out in to the big pots and feed the soil as she grows

Auto pot are amazing true set and forget. My advice would be get a bigger tank it's a pain in the ass filling it and doing nites and pH why do it very often ?

This is my very first grow indoors, my second including my outdoors last summer.

So im learning the system , plus growing in general.

Thankfull i found rollitup to say the least.

I have the xl four pot system, i forget the rez size. But we’ll see how it goes once the roots hit bottom. Ill get a few pics here soon . Transplanted them last night .

Soo im having ph issues in my autopot rez. Once i filled it, i ph’3d to 6.1. Next day she jumped on me to 7.5 ?!.! Whats up with thst? Im running an airstone , maybe that may be the cause?

Yeah I used to use an air stone now I just just a pump to move the water also the air Bible make the res lumply

I use the same xxl pots and just water in once

Auto pots are nearly complete set and forget systems but I won't use organic nutes they go lumpy quickly and clog the lines

Thanks for the input.

My girls have been in their autopots now for about a week and a half. Only took about 4 days for them to start bottom feeding. They seem very happy now. Loving it

What do you use for nutes?

First time flowering!!! I know now what people mean by early flower stretch!

Canna coco with super thrive and Epsom salts
